Fantasy and Distorted Perception

When you maintain that there MUST be
order of difficulty in miracles, all you mean is that there are some
things you would WITHHOLD from truth. You believe that truth cannot deal
with them, ONLY because YOU would keep them FROM truth. Very simply,
your lack of faith in the Power that heals ALL pain, arises from YOUR
wish to retain some ASPECTS of reality FOR FANTASY. If you but realized
what this MUST do to your appreciation of the whole! What you RESERVE
UNTO YOURSELF, you TAKE AWAY from Him Who would release you. Unless you
GIVE IT BACK, it is inevitable that YOUR perspective of reality be
warped and uncorrected.

As long as you would have this be,
so long will the ILLUSION of order of difficulty in miracles REMAIN with
you. For YOU have established this order in REALITY, by giving some of
it to one teacher, and some to another. And so you learn to deal with
PART of truth in one way, and in ANOTHER way with the OTHER part. To
FRAGMENT truth, is to DESTROY it by rendering it meaningless. ORDERS of
reality is a perspective without understanding, a frame of reference FOR
reality, to which it cannot REALLY be compared at all. Think you you can
bring truth to fantasy, and learn what truth MEANS, from the perspective
of illusions?

Truth HAS no meaning in illusion.
The frame of reference FOR its meaning MUST BE ITSELF. When you try to
bring TRUTH to illusions, you are trying to MAKE THEM REAL, and KEEP
them by JUSTIFYING your belief in them. But to give illusions to Truth
is to enable truth to teach that the ILLUSIONS are unreal, and thus
enable you to ESCAPE from them. Reserve not one idea aside from truth,
or you ESTABLISH orders of reality, which MUST imprison you. There IS no
order in reality, because EVERYTHING there is true.

Be willing, then, to give ALL you
have held OUTSIDE the truth, to Him Who KNOWS the truth, and in Whom all
is BROUGHT to truth. Salvation from separation will be COMPLETE, or will
not be at all. Be not concerned with anything except YOUR WILLINGNESS TO
HAVE THIS BE ACCOMPLISHED. HE will accomplish it; not you. But forget
not this; when you become disturbed, and lose YOUR peace of mind because
ANOTHER is attempting to solve his problems through fantasy, you are
refusing to FORGIVE YOURSELF for just this same attempt. And you are
holding BOTH of you AWAY from truth, and from salvation. As you FORGIVE
him, you RESTORE to truth what was denied by BOTH OF YOU. And you WILL
see forgiveness where YOU have given it.
